TURKEY KOFTA KABOBS
My Persian neighbor introduced me to kofta about 20 years ago. His were made of beef and I never actually got his recipe but I'm pretty good at replicating flavors and these came pretty close...and of course using turkey instead of beef makes these a lot lighter.

GRILLED TURKEY SAUSAGE KABOBS
We love SOPP: sausage, onions, potatoes, and peppers all fried up in one pan. It's delicious. This a a summertime take on this one-dish staple. Instead of pan-frying it, you skewer it and grill. Drizzle with more olive oil, salt, and pepper after grilling if desired.
